Danny Welbeck scored seven minutes before the break to give England the victory, producing another one-goal game for the highly-expected team.

Dries Mertens's goal in the 17th minute for Belgium was denied as referees whistled on a shove on Gary Cahill. Cahill was sent for a precautionary X-ray on his jaw after he left the pitch with blood.

England will kick off their Euro 2012 opener against France in Donetsk on June 11.
